No, he didn't go to LSU. Tommy Moore went to Oklahoma State (ranked #1 in country as a junior). He was there with Tway, Verplank, Pfister, etc. His nickname was Doc. In 1991 he was full time on PGA Tour.
Thanks for the correction on Tommy Moore...I do recognize the name...just mistaken identity on my part....What happend to his game and what does he do now?
Tommy died of a rare blood disease in 1998 ( I was told there have only been something like 9 known cases). He was 34 years old.
Sorry to hear that...pray he knew the Lord...
Now you 've got me thinkng......Who am I thinking about from LSU?...Not David Toms....but wasn't there a dude from Louisiana that was really good..I thought it was a Tommy__________?

If he was from LSU he should be in this list somewhere.
Now that I know your name is David Orr it sounds really familiar. Did we ever play together?

Don't forget Lafayette's own Jay Hebert. Hebert led the LSU Tigers to the 1947 NCAA College Golf Championships. He also won the 1960 PGA Championship at Firestone.

Tommy Mudd.....thanks
I played with Charlie Raulerson in a Nike Monday qualifier in Haines City, Fla...
Played in events or chased mini-tours with a lot of the dudes...listed....Geez LSU has put out a bunch of "bayou bengals" on the Professional circuits...
Tom what tours did you play on?
Perhaps we've run into each other on the road, range, played infront of or behind....I chased it for a while in the early and mid 90's...I made more money teaching than playing..thus this is where I am today!!!!!
Played PGA Q-Schools, PGA Monday qualifiers, Hogan, Nike, Buy.com, Nationwide qualifiers, U.S. Opens, State Opens, Hooters tour, Ninfa's tour, Texas tour, Lone Star tour, Tight Lies tour, Gulf Coast tour, Emerald Coast tour and several other independent tournaments too many to list.
Last serious shot was a few years back. I decided to Monday qualify only, for the year. I told a friend of mine who was going to caddy for me if we shoot 69 every week we will get into 90% of the tournaments. I played in six in a row. 69,69,70,67,69,69 didn't get into a single one. The 67 I believe to be the lowest score shot in a U.S. Open first stage not to make it. It was at the course where Rob Noel teaches and there were 3 66's, my 67 then I believe a 71. Anyway, Tommy Moore had always told me not to go the "Monday" route it will only dishearten you...should have listened.
But David, I am almost positive that I remember your name. As attested above, I spent a lot of time in front of score boards watching everything go to crap. lol
